I watch that channel with the wood cabin on the back of his truck. Is it called truck life living or something?💚💛❤️
56:35
FROM AN ALASKAN
IT IS AN HONOR TO HAVE YOU DO THIS AND TALK LIKE THAT ABOUT THE 2 BEARS
On your next crazy road trip can I go
😂 God bless you bro
The trailer park guy who sold you the truck is a gem, he shoulda joined the trip
came to comments to say this , that guy was awesome
"you'll be on the road 2.5 days"
lmao
❤❤💖💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕😍😍😁😁✌✌😘😘
Did they sell the truck back to him is all I want to know
There's still in Alaska dude @@joshuamcfadden
That guy made me LOL
im 40 minutes into the video and I can already tell that by you guys not adding in insulation to the cabins it will be a rough night.
That was my thought. At least building foam it to fill in the empty gaps. lol Open space for that
it took me 20 mins to realize that lmfao i kept saying to myself where is the insulation at
@@ii_caedo2363 same. i was thinking that they would eventually put some in. only after 40 mins i realised it was too late for any more updates
@@thedarkfleet6516 frr
It’s probably bc he blew the 500$ budget for sleeping bags🤣
This is like a top gear challenge, and I love it!
I think this was in the USA version
@@kevinadams5592no they did this in the original BBC version. Jeremy and the guys all had makeshift apartments attached to their vehicles. If you remember, Jeremy had one that was three stories high. It was super obnoxious and it was one of the harder episodes to get through. But it was pretty funny.
@@Nothingbutnet9 top gear usa season 1 they went to Fairbanks and built cabins on the back of their trucks.
❤❤💖💖😍😍😁😁😁😁
@@Nothingbutnet9they did it in the USA one to
Canadian here:
Zero insulation, zero wood stoves and all the air gaps to heat mother nature.
You are absolutely wild for this man!
and as a carpenter/appalachian mountain kentucky off gridder, your 100% right, i just hope there atleast protected from grizzlie's & sabe's while freezing there buiscuits off. and armed with a 12 gauge each with slug & buckshot
He has all the insulation built into his body :D He built like a grizzly but i am trully concerned... You never ever can take mother nature lightly especially in those conditions, many have died for that...why take needless risks?
They are wearing shorts in the video...
“ you’ll be on the road for a day and a half. My Suzuki only goes 50. You be on the road for 2 days and a half” 😂😂😂😂
*2 and a half days
To add to your sentence “😐😐”
With a payload capacity of what?😂
My keyboard almost wore my mouthful of coffee at this one.
This is what we need after the Grand Tour ended. PLEASEEEEE make this your new thing!! The three of you are the perfect leads for this series, great job!
Especially with then giving him the steering wheel cover it’s just like top gear then giving each other stupid gifts to annoy each other
Absolutely. Redneck grand tour. It’s perfect change over.
@@philaudiostrike8746 Roadkill is canceled, all the motortrend shows are.
It really was like another episode of the grand tour we NEED MORE lol
@@aidendyer2424for real man i miss top gear😢😢
I never leave comments, but had to search this up on my phone after watching it on TV just to leave a comment. This is well done! Had very much top gear/grand tour vibes, but almost like the Top Gear America we should have had. Good job. Very entertaining.
Redneck top gear🤣✌️
The music, and video quality is top draw ! This is a Masterpiece ! I wish there was a part 2 , to see the Suzuki make it would be fantastic.
Haha that was hilarious when Westin went head first into the back of the cab. The way he was able to just laugh it off was funny. At least nobody got hurt.
Welcome to Alaska!
😊
Hell yes
Cant wait for this. Also, noticed you didn't buy that tank.
I couldnt way for this
Hey Westen, I’m that kid you met at Boot Barn in Buffalo and you autographed my boots 😁 I love ur shit man ✊
This was good, but it felt incomplete. Need another episode(s) to actually get to the intended desination. To be shot next summer of course. Y'all ain't remotely prepared for Dalton in winter.
brother, those 11:00 Harley guys are the reason that South Park episode exists. what a bunch of goobers
Lmfao I like Harley’s so regardless I’m getting one, ik I won’t be like this fool but f me is it not cringe
dude has a point though. HD execs have ruined the look of their bikes. Go woke, turn into a giant bitch lol. I still love the bikes, just not the high-ups in the company.
Naw they spoke truth.
Rable rable rable.
Nah that first dude was speakin truth about hd that dude and woman strangled that company tryna sell evs to to southern californians
Table pepper will save your life in a leaky antifreeze situation, be it head gasket or small water pump leak. Interesting to see a egg used, "ewww that smelll, the smell that surrounds you!!" LOL . Great show fellas! I have no idea why I enjoyed this so much.
“Homeless Australian that won’t leave my house” 😂😂
Honestly it’s sweet of you to adopt him haha he’s been a great addition to the channel!
11:05 Westen's sarcastic and tired "Oh no" toward the camera in response the biker's nonsense is fantastic.
yeah that guy just smoked some extra curricular type shit
@2025944 nah just a trumpie. They really act that way.
@@BluenosedMarsh It's called being an old divorced boomer. Nothing to do with politics
Well it aint nonsense, the Harley CEO is actually a woke guys who want to rebrand Harley
Ya, this woke, cancel culture can piss off.
Oh boy here we goooooooo. 1 hour of western roadtip. Can't wait
30 minutes of professional cabin building then 30 minutes of road trip lol
Love it!
😁😁😍😍💕💕💕💕💕💕✌✌
That title should be 300 miles til we broke down and quit lol
Kyle did that ”Steve Irwin” part perfect with the bears, buy him a pair of beige shorts 😂 He is a must on this channel, what a genius move to bring him on 👍🏻❤️
This was great but it feels like it cut off too soon. Its like you were on the way but never made it. It needed the trip finishing off one way or another - even if that meant leaving the Suzuki and carrying on without it.
Could have easily watched the two hour version to finish it off. Nice work people.
Right!! They didn’t even reach the gravel road which is the tragic part. The one guy that said they should’ve just bought SUV’s was right.
Pt 2 maybe?
They would have never made it. The framing was pretty well done, but everything else about those "cabins" was absolute trash. Wide open gaps that you could see through? Absolutely no insulation going through Alaska? No heating solutions whatsoever? They even bragged at the start of the video that the only fluids they would check would be the gas level. Then later they were borderline wrecking vehicles to prove that 'they didn't care'.
It's like a discount knock off of early 2000's Jackass. Entertaining, but they were never going to succeed at something like this coming at it like that.
50% of the video was them building shitty cabins in a parking lot
Westen in Australia we need that as soon as possible! Thats going to be one hell of a series! Cant wait great video boys. Something you wont ever forget!
💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏😍😍💕💕
He needs to go through the Bush with the 4x4 guys from Aus
Yes Please
@@charlieburton9967 rohnny dahl?
During a qld summer !!
I’ve spent a couple summer working on a fishing boat out of Sitka and I can say Alaska is just as beautiful as it is scary and wild. I love my time there every year and am so excited to watch this. Fire content
Awesome movie Westen!!
You should definitely go to Australia next and have some fun with Kyle. He’s hilarious.
✌✌💕💕😁😁😁😁💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖❤❤❤❤
Yeah idk why he didint go to Summernats he might have
Honestly, bring the trailer park guy back for the next trip, but this type of video is exactly what we want from our favorite car youtubers. Westen, your amazing, and entertaining and honestly, the suzuki breaking down is right on brand couldn't have asked for a better video. Now you just need to send other youtubers where your going and make them like the super secret top gear guy that gives you random challenges but instead it's youtubera facetiming you telling you, hey westen on your way to the northern most part of Alaska, there's an offroad racetrack where you are going to pit ypur truck against the other two in a time attack race to see who does the best. Etc etc. Would be a fun way to do it.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the pure stability and strength of that Home Depot dolly @ 16:09 😅
Nahh for real😂😂
Builds cabin for truck, accidentally builds it to code…
Hilarious.. you guys have captured the essence of top gear- a bunch of guys out making bad decisions, and surviving.. the comradery between you all is priceless. Just having gone through all the fires in Los Angeles, made me laugh and enjoy the moment away with your adventure! Thank you!
VERY MUCH IN NEED OF ANOTHER 1 HOUR WESTEN VIDEO , Best trip you have done need another one!!
“I’m not scared I’m stupid” should be a t-shirt lmao😂
As an Alaskan I sure appreciate watching you smile through the trial n tribulations that all us Adventures go through. I will enjoy watching the rest that this state has to offer you by land, air and sea! Oh and it especially would enjoy seeing you guys, 1320, Cleetus, n Whistlindiesel all send a rig off of the annual 4th of July car launch. I’m certain you would enjoy it as much as 1320 car guys... I hope to see this and you all there.... signed Alaskan
Could not agree more
Signed fellow Alaskan
“You can’t see how straight this is bc your dear well ill learn brail” is the best line ever spoke by man
Back to the type of Westen content we all love and enjoy. Nonnense, completely behind the scenes…this is what we did, come see it all. Enjoyed watching you guys build the cabins in the parking lot!!
Yes continue with this type of content. It was awesome to have 3 vehicles each one became more ridiculous than the last.
It was reminiscent of TopGear. That is one of the many reasons I enjoyed it. Normally on build videos they get drawn out and boring, but you kept my attention the whole time.
Keep it up gents!
This is hands down one of the most entertaining videos I’ve watched all this year, Thanks guys!!
💕💕❤❤❤❤💖💖💖💖💖💖😍😍
We're only 10 days into this year but I think you're right! 😂
All this year??? You bots are so feeble.
At this point with 3 vehicles, this basically feels like an episode of Top Gear 🤣
I work in Prudhoe Bay, it's a cool once in a lifetime trip to make but it's just the oil fields and a lot of places you can't go without a badge
Is it a once in a lifetime trip because you wont want to go back there ? 😂
💕💕😁😁💖💖💖💖❤❤😍😍😍😍
I hate it up there. Everyday is a monday until fly home day
Same it’s now my hell for three weeks at a time 😂😂😂
@@TipOfTheSpear907 never gone for less than 6 weeks lol. by week 4 my brain is mush
Holy shit! Rylan is my cousin and I had no idea he worked for you! My jaw dropped when I saw his face. He’s officially the coolest guy in our family 😂😂
For head gasket you make it an open system. Then you fill the washer fluid bottle with water and hook the hose from squiters into the radiator. And as temp guage rises you push the squirter button to refill.
Or remove head and copper coat it
Are we seeing a new Top Gear trio forming right before our eyes?😂😂😂 I’m in!!!
I literally was attempting to buy this truck when Westen swooped in and bought it!
Haven't even watched the video yet, but im still interested just fyi!
Same
❤❤💖💖💖💖😁😁💕💕💕💕✌✌
The Suzuki or the GMC?
@theyeetus1428 suzuki, still haven't watched the video lol, watching the buckeye after an afternoon getting firewood
Having the freaking Aussie on the team adds so much fun flavor to the channel !!!
It makes me happy to see dudes that look like you do, rolling your eyes at someone acting like people would think you act just by your looks. That Harley fanboy was nuts.
An Aussie in Alaska doing this is so funny. Im just starting this glorious video and cant wait.
Throw in Peggin & it'll be Minty. 🔥
😍😍💖💖❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That’s crazy asussies are mobile who would’ve thought
You should put expanded foam and all the cracks before you sleep in the cabins will keep the inside a lot warmer.
I've been thinking this the whole time... im currently halfway through the episode... I pray they get diesel heaters.. because if they rely on sleeping bags alone. They dead
@@G.and.DJackson-rated sleeping bags are dirt cheap these days.
I MADE IT IN THE VIDEO🤣😝
Damn. This is making me miss Alaska. I used to train in the arctic circle while in the army. I was fortunate enough to be stationed at fort wainwright. I would camp, hunt, fish, four-wheel and just have a blast in Alaska! Beautiful land out there
Nice dude hahaha! Would have loved to catch you guys up here! Maybe on the road trip in 2025🔥
Was looking for this comment lol
Was also looking for your comment!.
I was trying to tag you Timmy soon as weston said he seen a video of a cabin on a truck I knew it was you lol
@@timothymetzler7715 lol
He need to show them how its done lol
Should be a Netflix special 😂
Awesome dudes! Looks like yawl having a blast 😅🇺🇸🤘😎
This is more Aussie than you think 🤣
Shout out to the dude for letting you use his truck
as a scaffold. Team work makes the dream work!!
A collab with @TruckHouseLife would’ve been awesome👍🏼
dude HELL YES
Yooooo
This is the best thing since Jeremy, May, and Richard started doing trips together
I’d like to see more videos like this from you guys.
The chemistry between yas flows really well for these Top Gear/Grand Tour type adventures.
Videos like this are always worthy of a rewatch.
Lived in Anchorage for 22 years, been on most of the roads you drove. I have went to Prudhoe Bay 3 times in winter and summer, good video lots of epic shots. Kudos to your cameraman.
✌✌💕💕😁😁😁😁💖💖💖💖❤❤😍😍😍😍
@@Hoa-Mechanical bot "100+ comments on this video"
10:45. Literally every Harley rider
I hope that wasn’t the end of the trip, I don’t even think you hit the Dalton yet!
the trailer park king just offers you his 6.5 for the journey and you dont invite him on the journey? you should know thats how us midwesterners find the greatest friendships
The guy sold them a stolen GMC pickup truck. Why would he come?
@@randyhome1544 how do you know? he steal that pile of shit from you?
People are busy and not UA-camers , can’t just drop everything you’re doing and go on a week or longer trip. Use your brain 🧠
The tow strap joke was no joke. I once had a guy with a 6.5 Suburban pull me out of the ditch. He had tire chains and everything. He saved my butt. My brother was about to drive a tractor ten miles to pull me out of multiple feet of wet snow until this random man in a Suburban showed up.
@@randyhome1544thats pretty standard for the average Alaskan shit box. I bet he daily drove it like that not too long ago. I had 3 vehicles that started with a screwdriver because I lost all my keys somewhere in the mountains.
This and old top gear have the same energy! I could watch you three travel the world doing ridiculous trips like this everywhere! I hope you return to finish this trip!
@21:59, pillaging the Home Depot parking lot while rocking Lowes tools is savage AF😂😂😂
Needs to be a part 2 to this who agrees
The amount of unfiltered comedy from the normal people is great!!!!
🙏🙏😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I’m so stoked you came up to my home state! I remember seeing car groups post that yall were here. My home town is Fairbanks, yall HAVE to come back to do it. But you have to get somewhat better rigs. They aren’t lying when it’s dirt just outside of Fairbanks lol. It’s called the haul road for a reason and it’s 95% semi’s. People do it all the time on adventure bikes but it’ll destroy your truck/car if it’s not prepared lol.
Great video! I had the privilege of taking the drive up the Dalton Highway this last September, and it was truly the most breathtaking, rewarding, and most beautiful trip I have ever been on in my entire life. We took a more simple approach with staying at the camps in Coldfoot each way down and back, but I highly recommend you guys take another shot at in next season, assuming you weren't able to make it up originally!
Honestly, thank you, weston.This is giving me some old school top gear vibes. Thank you for the smiles and laughs! 😂
An hour? This should have been released in theaters first...
No comments? Lemme fix that
😂😂👌
😍😍❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💖💖
Then don’t watch it 😅😂
Meh🥴
38:30 that was close
I love the Steve Irwin bit …. Brought a tear to my eye … 😂
Can’t beat a western vid, the way it’s filmed it’s like your along for the ride.
I have never wanted a mini truck cabin more than I do right now! We need more to this story!
The cabin builds made this video. Absolute banger of a vid!
As someone who lived in fairbanks, ak for 15 years and did the dalton highway multiple times. I still loved the vid. It was a solid attempt even though ya'll didn't even get remotely close. Just the drive from anchorage to fairbanks is gorgeous as you showed. God bless and hopefully you'll try it again also next time look into the K2 private piloted tours of the glaciers and cabins. it'lll blow your mind Westen!
you forgot the Great stuff foam to hold it all together! lol
❤❤💖💖😍😍💕💕
We need a part two where you fix the Suzuki and do the whole drive!
The guy you seen was probably truckhouslife. Been watching his channel for a long time. It's awesome.
They were like probably 500 feet away from his home in girdwood AK. That's my old stomp zone.
😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤😁😁💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
As someone who lives in Anchorage, seeing you were up here and knowing I missed you while spending most of my summer and August around that exact Home Depot so I know for a fact I probably just missed you makes me sad lol. Love the video tho
24:06 I never laughed so hard until Aussie said we’re going to test this mini truck and Weston was like “we going to roll the f over” we’re going to roll the f over!!! I lost it, my favorite part of the 5 years I’ve been watching ur amazing my guy all of yall
That grey truck had 4 runs of 0g power wire it’s either got a bunch of electrical add ins or a huge audio set up
I actually couldn't tell on my phone and thought they were vaccuum testing it.
Turning into a new Top Gear but with good chemistry, hell yeah more of these kind of videos.
I don't usually watch the full 1-hour vids from people but this one was so good that I did so thx for that I guess can't wait to see yall in Astrella
Fuck me sideways , that's the worst spelling of Australia I've ever seen 😂
This gives me top gear USA vibes when I was little, this is sweet! Love the content
This is probably the best representation of Alaska I’ve seen yet. It being my home for my childhood seeing crappy reality tv of Alaska to seeing this is a breath of fresh air.
This is my new top gear! The charisma between you three, the epic adventure, and the shenanigans! Absolutely fantastic video! Please keep up the great work!
11:13 i lost my crap hearing this dude lmao
heard and looked for a comment about him
❤❤💖💖😍😍
"Its iced tea baby" lmao 😂
redneck caseoh confirmed! Much love man!
14:10 That Home Depot employee was like "I ain't get paid enough ya'll have fun"
Bro the 🐱 blanket took me out 😂😂😂
I’m back here today at 4:45pm central. Just to say that I found this page and this video at 2am and I watched it all and I loved it! I’m a fan… saw the smallest car one after and so on
Everyday when Wester upload its a special day !
💕💕😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖
Westen has rejuvenated the Top Gear recipe and executed it to perfection…. We have our new great 🥹
YAY! Lets do this! We are ready for the adventure! HELL YES!!!!
😁😁❤❤💖💖💖💖💖💖😍😍
Literally rolling on the ground laughing. Yall are epic!
😁😁💖💖❤❤❤❤😍😍
Nothing is that funny. Literally
Boy that mini trucks steering wheel is going to be clean!
1:29 what a beatiful way to introduce the crew
That was great so far but was that it? You didn’t even get on the Dalton Highway yet. I was super hyped for the video so I sure hope there’s more parts and that’s now how you’re ending it. Leave the Suzuki behind and buy something else or keep going without it.
Always someone complaining
I think they realized how wildly unprepared and uncomfortable they were and called it quits. Pretty lame imo. I doubt they even slept in that on the last “camping” part of the vid. I bet they just made a fire and went to a hotel after. Zero chance he stayed
Overnight in it.
@@TJY2K going off of the title, he has a point 😅
I would have paid to watch this in theaters....great job guys!
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖😁😁😁😁❤❤❤❤❤❤
Someone sponsor this man. He needs to make of this “Top gear” style journey
Russian bots will say this place is lawfully there’s..,, and the 99 year lease is up so Russia wants it back lol 😂 love your videos bro
Fun Fact! You can still buy that exact same Suzuki brand new in South Africa.
😍😍❤❤💖💖💕💕💕💕💕💕
A follow south African
Of course I’d like to see more like this. I hope there’s more, things were just getting started. Y’all still need to touch the Arctic Ocean to be successful on that trip.
Am US citizen living in The Philippines.
I own one of these Suzuki Carry pick-ups.
Long trips, I drive the Ford, but for local work, market, etc., it's great.
Is a 3-cylinder 660cc ohc 4 valve/cylinderengine with fuel injection.
Goes anywhere...
If overheated, send head to be decked.
Westen is looking good keep dropping that weight man it’s awesome to see and healthy for you and we want you here for the long run! Your brother too! Keep it up the great work guys 💪
He’s only two Oreos away from the big one now lol
